Laundry Day Pep Up...It shouldn't feel like a chore.

This is a sponsored post for Defunkify.com



I'm one of those people who doesn't mind doing laundry. I can throw in a load of wash and carry on my day doing another household activity until it's time to switch over the load. I love the way my clothes come out smelling clean and fresh and there's nothing that beats the feel of clean sheets freshly placed on my bed!



The hardest part of doing laundry...well besides fighting the dryer monster and sock patrol...is finding the right laundry detergent that not only cleans well but eliminates the odors from my clothes associated with my job, and let's not forget the odors of a growing teenage boy.

So first let me tell you about my job. I work in healthcare...need I say more? I come home sometimes smelling like a roadside bathroom and it's not pretty. So I need something that can lift the smells and sometimes the stains from my scrubs. Those nice smelling perfume detergents just don't cut it. Sure they smell nice, but they often just cover the smells and not necessarily take them out. I have also recently started a workout routine and my clothes smell horrible after I'm done. No one wants to go to the gym with their bag smelling like sweat and calories lol

So let's talk about that teenager...Yikes, he can be stinky. He also comes home with things on his clothes that I'm afraid to even ask about. Let's face it when it comes to preteen and teenagers, There is nothing else like it. Their hormones are changing and everything that didn't have something going on now has an overabundance of changes.


So now back to laundry. I have tried many different detergents and find that almost all of them do not clean like they promise. They leave my clothes smelling great but it's just a cover for what the real issue is, the underlying smell that gets caked into the fabrics. I recently had a friend tell me about Defunkify Active Wash laundry detergent and deodorizer. The company sent me a canister to try out as well as their Defunkify Active Spray for shoes and active gear. 

We'll chat about the Active Wash detergent first. It comes in a 40oz canister (56 loads), 20oz canister (28 loads) and single load pouches.  You only have to use a scoop (which is included in the canister) and it does all the work of other detergents and then some.

So you may be asking what the difference is between what you normally use and what defunkify can do. Here is a sample of what other ways of washing differ from each other. 


What can Defunkify wash and how does it work?

PERFECT FOR CLEANING ACTIVEWEAR - Surface chemistry engineered for synthetic fibers enables enzymes to remove all the funk trapped in your sportswear.

POWDER THAT’S POWERFUL - Clean and easy to use, just one small scoop cleans an entire load of laundry. No messy liquids, fillers, or tricky instructions. Just awesome, ultra-concentrated detergent.
SUPER STAIN REMOVER & RESIDUE FREE PERFORMANCE - Blood, grass and sweat stains are easily removed. Zero detergent residue is left behind.
GREEN CHEMISTRY FORMULA - Created with the principles of green chemistry, Defunkify ACTIVE WASH uses plant-based ingredients, minerals, enzymes and sustainable synthetics listed on the EPA’s Safer Choice Ingredient List.
GREAT FOR ALL YOUR OTHER LAUNDRY - Activewear is the toughest laundry to clean, and nothing works better than Defunkify. Try the ACTIVE WASH with your bedding, delicates, down jackets, waterproof jackets, swimwear, jeans, jerseys, socks, towels, and more. 

Do you know other detergents that can promise you all this?

Adding the recommended amount to my laundry is super simple. Just add a scoop to laundry and add clothes. If you have stains on your clothing, it's recommended that you let it soak for a bit to help activate and then start your washer again. 





















Not only does it clean and remove odors but the small container doesn't take up half the counter space. I know right?! Clean clothes and more space..genius. So now I can go to work and to the gym without worrying about the smells staying with me, even after I wash.

So now let's talk about the Defunkify Active Spray




You know when it comes to growing boys...their shoes stink like sweaty nastiness that you just don't want to linger in your house. We don't have to keep his shoes outside anymore! The Defunkify Active Spray keeps the odors out of my sons' shoes and keeps them fresh no matter what activity he's done!

Defunkify Active Spray removes odor from athletic shoes, boots, cleats, and gear. First, high-quality Essential Oils provide instant relief. Then, Ionic Silver gets activated, actually eliminating the source of odor AND preventing it from returning.


So what I like the best about the Defunkify company, is all their products are eco-friendly, it can be used with any temperature of water, any type of clothing and it's a small container. You get clean, fresh smelling clothes without taking up a lot of space. The active spray eliminates the odors from my sons' shoes and the gym bag I now carry around with me!

  1. I like using plant-based laundry products, because they don't destroy my clothes. I find towels, especially, last a lot longer. So I'm interested in trying this.

  2. The water in our town is terrible. I can use the best detergents but the laundry might still stink. Defunkify sounds like it was made for us! I've got a 14 year old boy and a husband who does a lot of travel.
